Demise.
From the Pensacola Comm ercidl.
The following account of the manner in
which the late lamented H. Pfeitfer, Sr., of
this city, was taken with his last illness,
and his subsequent death, is from the Little
Rock Gazette Of July II:
Mr. H. Pfeiffer, ST., of Pensacola, Fla, a
stranger here, died suddenly at the Com
mercial Hotel, in this city, yesterday after
noon, of congestion Of the brain and lungs,
brought on by the intense heat. Mr.
Pfeiffer, it seems, had been spending some
time recently at Hot Springs. He left there
yesterday and had trunk checked to De-
catur, Ala, and valise to Pensacola, Fla
When be arrived in Little Rock yester-
day afternoon he missed the connection with
the Memphis and Little Rock train. The
heat was intense, and the gentleman wor-
ried over getting left until finally the heat
overcame him and he became Frustrated
A hackman seeing the condition of the man
put him in his vehicle and brought him up
town, but he had trouble getting hotel ac-
cOmmOdatiOns for the nan, who, it could be
seen at glance, was in a very bad condi-
ton. Finally, through the assistance of
Maj, c. {. Dean and some other gentlemen,
the proprietor of the Commercial Hotel
agreed to give the sick stranger q ROOM
TOO LATE.
He was removed from the carriage and
DR.. j. Ii. Len0w summoned, and also DR..
French. All that was possible was done for
the man, but he died between 5 and 6
O'clock. His remains We're taken in charge
by Undertaken Cook, who has put them in
an ice-paCked casket to await the orders of
friends or relatives. kilograms were sent

A HORRIBLE AWAKENING.
The Frightful Situation of Young
Man on a Railroad Track.
FH.om "a Mncon lGnl TeLeq.oph.

From, the Macon (GG.) Telegraph.
Mr.. W. B. Danes, of Danes Ferry, was
in the city Friday, and related an accident
on the East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia railroad, about fourteen miles above
Macon, that has some horrible features.
| A young man named Malone, whose home
is at jackson, was employed by the road on
the section gang at work between Danes
ferry and POpe's ferry. On Thursday af-
| ternoon, Capt. r. j. Osborne, the section
boss, finding that there was a repair that
he might not be able to make before the ar
rival of the north-bound train which left
! Macon at AIS, sent young Malone with a
red flag and a torpedo to warn it of the
danger Malone left, and at a proper dis
lance placed the torpedo on the track. His
| movements after that are more of con lecture
! than otherwise, the circumstances being the
| foundation for the conjecture Having at
| fixed the torpedo, he ran about 800 yards
! below TO where a tree threw a shade over
| the track. 1t was probably his purpose to
stop here and on the approach of the train
| to signal it down. Being a hot day and
| having run a considerable distance, he was
| overcome by the heat and concluded to lie
down. Folding up the red flag, he placed it
on the rail for his head to rest on, and then
lay down across the track, his feet on the
other rail. He fell asleep. and
during which the vibration of the
rails caused by the coming of the
! train aroused him. He saw in his dazed
condition the approachingtrain and realized
the danger he was in, but his senses were
not sufficiently aroused to give him the
strength TO raise himself up. 1t was
nightmare that fastened him to the track
and rendered him as helpless as an infant
While thus transtixed, knowing his danger
and yet unable to avert it, the engine came
on, the point of the pilot striking him in
! the body, giving il a twist and sending both
| legs under the wheels. just below the
! point at which the young man fell asleep is
| a reverse curve, and the train was within a
! short distance of the sleeping man when he
| was discovered, too late to stop the lOcOmO-
! tive. Mr. James was on the water near by
in boat fishing and heard the scream of
| young Malone as the pilot struck him. He
rowed to the bank and hurried to the spot
and saw the mangled body removed from
the track to the baggage car. One leg was
run over below the knee and mangled into
a shapeless mass, and the other was cut off
| above the knee He was attended by DR..
| W. p. Glover, of Juliette, and DR.. B. S.
Hollins, of Danes Ferry, and they did ali
that was possible to relieve his suffering.
The young man was carried to jackson,
where his father lives. He is about Is years
old, and had been at work on the road a
short time. While at Danes ferry he saw
friend from the car door and called to
him. When asked why he did not get up
from the track when he saw the train com
ing, he said he could not do it, although he
| tried
1t is thought that his recovery is impos-
sible.

RUM AND THE PRESIDENCY.
A Large Proportion of Interesting
Americans Drink Too Much.

Americans Drink Too Much.
From Letter by George Alfred Townsend
Among the men of the present day who
are aspirants for the Presidency, some do
not drink because they are afraid that a
little indulgence would carry them Off their
feet, and others drink with perfect inpu-
nifty, because they feel strong in well-regll-
lated natures. John Sherman, for instance,
will take his glass of whisky if a friend pre-
ferS it.
Blaine will not drink even q glass of cham
payne, though his father before him de-
voured very nice fortune in hospitable
living
Mr.. Conkling has weak stomach, partly
inherited and partly the result of excessive
ambition and gallivanting in his youthful
days. He therefore during his public life in
Washington never smoked a cigar except by
putting it in his mouth unlighted and his
drink was generally weak tea 1t is said
that Conklmg has of late turned his affection
toward the appolinaris water, of which COM
pany he is the attorney.
Liquor has had its victims in other coun-
tries than this. William Pitt who con
quered Napoleon, was destroyed in his early
youth by the enormous rotations of strong
ale he drank, and such failure as he made
financially would be noted in the United
States as the greatest scandal of the age.
Says Harriet Martincau: lie sank when The
calamity of Austria became known 70 him
and went to Bath in September The water
produced n fit of govt, which was succeeded
by debility of digestion
Putting his hand on his stomach he said
to the Bishop Of Lincoln: II feel something
here that reminds me shall never recover. "
A neighbor having sent message to in
quire after Mr.. Pitts state found the wicket
open at Rutney, and, nobody answering the
bell, he walked through the rooms till he
reached the bod on which the minister's
body lay lifeless, the sole tenant of the man
sion, of which the doors a few hours before
were darkened by crowds of suitors. The
House of Commons unanimously voted
COCOON for the payment of Mr. Pitts
debts" When they came to pay Pitts
debts, however, they found that they were
enormous. Mr.. Pitts great opponent. Fox
appears to have been nearly as reckless as
himself

flavor of his cigar, but the matches were
passed TO the newcomer with the utmost
courtesy. He took the box without word,
blew a cloud of smoke in our faces, threw
the box back on the opposite seat, fixed a
single glass in his eye and glared about HIM,
the most absurd and priggish ass on earth.
His clothes were white flannel, his hose blue
with white stars, and he wore a shirt with
red cross bars, relieved by n blue satin
scarf There were eight or ten rings on his
cigarette stained hands, and his hair was
beautifully banged. The man on my left

of the biggest bear houses in the Stock FIX
change-passed his cigar case to the bowling
swell with a smile
''Wha-whads thaty" drawled the swell,
heavily.
"Won't you have a cigar"' asked the
broker, pleasantly.
Nav
He turned his back on the Wall street
man with an air of such intolerable inso-
lonce that the broker flushed to the roots of
his hair We went on and on the following
morning we all met at breakfast in the ho-
tel. There was a general exchange of salu-
tations, and several men nodded politely to
the cheap and gaudy swell He did not &C
knowledge the courtesy in any case. The
men on the train proved to be admirable
companions, and they knew nearly every
body worth knowing in the hotel Fun of
all kinds went on, but the prig was not in
it, He had two trunks, though he only stayed
three days, and he wore three or four suits
of clothes day. They were an execrable
fit and of tlimsy texture, as rule. All the
man did was to stalk gloomily about, stare
hard at the other guests, and make frequent
changes of attire. Had he been little more
human he would undoubtedly have had
good time. As it was, helooked mournful and
miserable, and doubtless was both. 1t seems
a curious thing for a man to start out on
his vacation with the idea of seeing how OBJ
noxious he can make himself but nearly all
of the summer resort young men do it.
